I stayed during the Escape from Alcatraz Triathlon and the location was perfect. Trek bike shop near by, food not far away and close to race start. The staff were great, rooms were big and bus stop out the front. It really was the best spot for this race. The bath was good post race as well. Overall highly recommend!

We were in a room on Fillmore street across from a beer garden. To no fault of the hotel, we had a lot of noise that made it hard to sleep until after the bar closed each night. That being said, the room was perfect, the car was safe, we had an incredible stay. Next time I’ll bring earplugs and will stay here again and again. Thank you all!

Parking is on the ground floor below the rooms. There's no way to "secure" parking, just make sure valuables are out of sight. Room is nice, a bit dark but the lighting is nice. Layout was very nice, bed and restroom were clean, room temp. was good, and staff were friendly.
